THE FOLLOWING:
O.P.(DRT) No.276 of 2021 3
JUDGMENT
The petitioners who were the defendants 3 & 4 in T.A No.1487/2016 have filed Ext.P3 application on the premise that the final order in T.A.No.1487/2016 was ex parte order against them. In the meanwhile, based on the final order in T.A.No.1487/2016, recovery proceedings were initiated against the petitioners and the petitioners filed Ext.P6 application before the recovery officer of the Debts Recovery Tribunal, seeking a stay of further proceedings pending consideration of Ext.P3 application. This O.P.(DRT) was filed stating that the Ext.P3 application filed before the Debts Recovery Tribunal, is not been taken up for consideration on account of the fact that there was no regular sitting there. Since it is now reported that the Debts Recovery Tribunal has commenced regular sittings this O.P(DRT) is disposed of directing the Debts Recovery Tribunal to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 application within a period of 1 month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice to all sites. Till the orders are passed on Ext.P3 as above the interim order granted by this Court on 02-12-2021 will continue to operate.
